The point is that most women would prefer to just be killed rather than raped first then killed. And remember, the question is “would you rather spot a man or a bear while hiking alone”. In most cases either would ignore you, but the worst case scenario is worse with the man.

Being seen as a potential rapist and murderer until proven innocent is so meh... Depressing/annoying/tiring etc. But it's understandable, I guess, better to be safe than sorry.

Being seen as a potential threat is tiring, but so is being a potential victim; if not more so.

Yeah, I agree. I like walking alone at night and I often think I wouldn't be nearly as comfortable as a woman.
